Thanks, your report/dmesg are welcome.

Lars noticed that the link status is not correctly reported and suggested
a few changes. Can you check if the version below works better ?

Single file patch:
http://www.zoreil.com/~romieu/sis190/20050730-2.6.13-rc4-sis190-test.patch

Patch-kit:
http://www.zoreil.com/~romieu/sis190/20050730-2.6.13-rc4/patches

Tarball:
http://www.zoreil.com/~romieu/sis190/20050730-2.6.13-rc4.tar.bz2

If it does not pass the network init, can you issue
- ifconfig eth0 blah, blah by hand
- mii-tool -vvv eth0

I'll send the whole serie of patches to netdev/akpm.

Jeff, do you want that I publish it in some git repo as well ?
